Thread: Khan lied again!

IBF confirm that khan turned down an eliminator fight with Bradley for the Brook fight.

Neither Bradley or Algieri have that Ko power, difference is Algieri is a more cooperative target and wont really outwork you. In the choice between sitting duck and angry goose, Khan chose the one that stylistically made him look better and has been knocked down like 8 times in his last 2 fights.

The strange thing is that although I'm not a fan of Khan and I like Bradley, out of all the top guys Khan could fight, I think it's possible he could beat Bradley. Bradley is great , but for some reason the yanks don't like him, so he fights like an idiot to try to show them how tough and exciting he is. Consequently he takes more punishment than he should. Also although Bradley gets through with some big haymakers, he clearly hasn't got loads of power.
So if Khan could keep his discipline and box and move for 12 rounds, and Bradley loses his discipline and strays from the gameplan, Khan could do him on points.
Bradley is a bigger name on his CV than Alexander,Broner or Algieri and is beatable for him, and let's be fair, if he can't beat him, he shouldn't be linking himself with Floyd and Manny.

Frankie Gavin could get the shot!

I don't get it though. If I understand correctly , the IBF offered an eliminator to Bradley and Khan, Bradley accepted, Khan never. But now, it's almost like Gavin's getting lined up for a shot. What about Bradley and an eliminator?

Team Pac has made daily lying part of the sport. I assume you all heard Lara was sparring Pac, just yet another lie.

Khan wants either easy fights or the biggest names he doesn't deserve for the biggest paydays. A solid payday for a solid oppoent's not for him anymore.

Bradley would have been much better, the difference being that while both Algieri and Tim both land with the impact of hard thrown Nerf bullets...at least Bradley would TRY to score a ko. Khan don't want that. Guys throwing with bad intentions. Come on, that'd be nuts

Brook has a voluntary defence and I read Hearn was trying to set Gavin in that spot, thereby avoiding an eliminator. Bradley would probably still be in line for an eliminator for the mandatory position.

Khan has really made a mess with his opponent choice, I think he only wants to risk losing against Mayweather or Pacquiao at this stage.

What happened to the fearless and exciting Khan when he was with Roach?
